RAS-C² thermostatic sensor
The RAS-C² thermostatic sensor and the RA-N
valves are designed for use in 2-pipe domestic
heating systems.
The RAS-C² thermostatic sensor is a self-actuating
proportional controller with a small P-band. It
has a temperature range from 8 to 28° C and is
equipped with frost protection setting and positive
shut-off for maximum user flexibility.
RA-N presetting valves are manufactured from
brass with nickel plating. The gland seal pressure
pin is of chromium steel and works in a lifetime
lubricated O-ring. The complete gland seal assembly
can be replaced without draining down
the system.
European Standard EN 215
Thermostatic sensors RAS-C² with RA-N presetting valves are manufactured to the highest
standards, and are approved to the European standard EN 215.

In order to avoid deposition and corrosion the
composition of the hot water must be in accordance
with the VDI 2035 guideline (Verein
Deutscher Ingenieure). It is recommended that
formulations containing mineral oil are avoided.
Each RA-N valve body is supplied with a red protective cap, which can be used for manual regulation
during the construction phase. The protective
cap must not be used as a manual shut off
device. A special manual shut off device is available
as an accessory.
A comprehensive range of compression fittings
for PEX, AluPEX, copper and steel tubes are available
- please require special data sheet for Danfoss
compression fittings.

1) The kv-value indicates the water flow (Q) in m³/h at a pressure drop (Δp) across the valve of 1 bar;
kv = Q:
At setting N the kv-value is stated according to EN 215, at XP = 2K i.e. the valve is closed at 2°C

kvs-value states the flow Q at a maximum lift, i.e. at fully open valve at setting N.

2) Working pressure = static + differential pressure. The maximum differential pressure specified is the
maximum pressure at which the valves give satisfactory regulation. As with any device which imposes
a pressure drop in the system, noise may occur under certain flow/pressure conditions. To ensure quiet
operation, maximum pressure drop should not exceed 30 to 35 kPa. The differential pressure can be
reduced by the use of the Danfoss differential pressure regulators types AVD, AVDL, AVDS, IVD or ASV-P.

Presetting
Note:
As with any device which imposes a pressure
drop in the system, noise may occur under certain
flow/ pressure conditions.
The presetting values of RA-N valves can be
adjusted easily and accurately without the use of
tools (factory setting = N):
• Remove protective cap/thermostatic
sensor
• Find reference mark
• Lift and turn setting ring until the aquired
presetting aligns with the reference mark.
Presetting can be selected in steps from 1 to 7.
To ensure quiet operation, maximum pressure
drop should not exceed 30 - 35 kPa (3 - 3.5 mwg).

Reference mark
At setting N the valve is fully open. This setting
can be used as a flushing position, if the system
has to be flushed out because of dirt problems.
In one-pipe installations, the setting N must be
used.
Settings outside 1 to 7 and N should be avoided.
When the thermostatic sensor has been installed,
the presetting is protected against unintended
regulation.
